The Chinese government has chosen an HD DVD-based format as their HD format of choice.

They hope to have it in place before the 2008 Olympics, which will be held in Beijing.

The format will not be 100% identical to the US HD DVD format but will use the same optical technology.

This means that a Chinese-produced disc will not play in an HD DVD player from the US. However, a Chinese player will play their HD format as well as regular US and EU HD DVD releases.
